Recently (don't recall this happening earlier), when I'm on the phone (not through android auto or iphone version)in the truck, I get this beep. No message is displaying.

I wish I could give more info, but haven't a clue as to what this is.

Are you towing anything?
There is an audible noise about overpasses and bridges when you are towing.

We are towing. Is it just letting us know about the overpasses because nothing displays on screen?

That's likely it. If you turn on the truck's native navigation, it will display what the warning chime is about. Unfortunately, it chimes anytime you're set to go under something that's "low clearance," even if it's multiple feet higher than what you've input as your trailer height. Mine was chiming so frequently that I ended up turning it off, since none of the warnings were particularly relevant.

What Aron said, I posted on this exact same thing, about a year ago. When I was towing my jet skis out to the lake, every overpass and bridge I approached sound that chime\beep. Jet skis on a trailer stand at tallest maybe 4.5ft off the ground. Its ridiculous. I even set my Jet Ski "profile" up and it still beeps at me.
